Cheralee Lyle, aside from being beautiful and sweet, is an amazing addition to the Washington DC fashion blogger community (all the way from South Africa). Her blog Lyle Style is already one of the best in the city. Welcome to DC Cheralee!

I’ve been collecting heavy bright-colored floor-length skirts over the winter, I don’t really remember why I had such urge, maybe they reminded me of “The Little House on the Prairie” meets Hermes Fall 09 “Indian Winter” ads

I go through these jewelry stages every year where I obsess over certain items, last year it was bracelets, I wore dozens of then at the time, and nothing else. This year it’s necklaces, hand-made quirky ones.
